How To Drive - Alexander 23

Lyrics by：Alexander 23

Composed by：Alexander 23

My grandparents they're getting older

Some of my friends they're getting sober

Oh it's true that life goes on

But it sure leaves some things behind

And I worked real hard I made some money

And it's not a joke but it's still funny

How with every ounce of freedom comes a pound of traumatized

It feels like all my friends they feel the same way

The candles take more breath on every birthday

The train it leaves the station without a final destination

And I know I should shut up enjoy the ride

But nobody ever taught me how to drive

And I've been heartbroken so badly

But now I'm scared of being happy

So when the butterflies show up

I make excuses up and hide

Like work is busy I'm feeling weird

My dog died this time last year

It feels like all my friends they feel the same way

The candles take more breath on every birthday

The train it leaves the station without a final destination

And I know I should shut up enjoy the ride

But nobody ever taught me how to drive

Oh oh

I'm scared to death of my friends dying

And I'm insecure about actually trying

I got so many things I wanna do that I get paralyzed and

End up wasting precious time

On things that make me wanna die

I'm tired of seeing the world in black and blue

My grandparents they're getting older

Wish they could tell me when it's all over

Did you and all your friends feel the same way

Did the candles take more breath on every birthday

When the train it left the station was there a final destination

Did you learn to just shut up and enjoy the ride

Did you learn to keep it all between the lines

Did anybody ever teach you how to drive
